Patent EP-0909254-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CRUICKSHANK JOHN DUNCAN
IPC: F16L1/024
Filed: 1997-04-24
Abstract: A storage system for storing continuous lengths of rigid pipe, particularly for storage of pipe prior to the spooling of the pipe onto the pipe storage reel of a marine pipelay vessel. The system comprises a loop (12) of rail track (20) with a plurality of rail bogies (100) arranged around the circumference of the loop (12). The bogies (100) are adapted to retain and receive multiple turns of the length of pipe (102) extending around the loop (12). The radius of curvature of the loop (12) is selected such that the bending of the pipe (102) around the loop (12) does not result in plastic deformation of the pipe (102). Arrangements for loading and offloading the pipe (102) may include: a pipe guide (232) suspended from a gantry (230) spanning the track (20) and a pipe loading/offloading path (238); pipe tensioning means (234) located downstream of the pipe guide (232) in the offloading direction; and an 'expansion arc' (216) extending from the loading/offloading point to allow variations in the length of the pipeline path (238) extending from the loop (12) to a vessel mooring location.

Abstract: In an operation mechanism of an HST system transmission apparatus of the type
in which an HST system non-stage transmission mechanism for driving and an HST
system non-stage transmission mechanism for turning are disposed, the HST system
non-stage transmission mechanism is operated by a transmission lever and the HST
system non-stage transmission mechanism for turning is operated by a round operation
wheel, a steering mechanism can make a turning operation matching turn feeling desired
by an operator in turning at both low and high speeds. Namely a in the operation of the
HST system transmission apparatus wherein the HST system non-stage transmission
mechanism (25) for driving is operated by a transmission lever (68) and the HST system
non-stage transmission mechanism (28) for turning is operated by a round operation
wheel (19), a speed ratio between right and left driving devices is changed in
accordance with the operation turning angle of the round operation wheel (19). The
turning radius is changed, even with the same operation turning angle of the round
operation wheel (19), by the difference of the operation angle of the transmission lever
(68).

Abstract: Un procédé permettant d'apporter un gaz jusqu'à un site consiste à placer des cellules comportant des microbulles de gaz dans des conditions qui amènent les cellules à flotter sur une surface d'un milieu aqueux, à prélever les cellules sur la surface du milieu, à lyser les cellules, à séparer les microbulles de gaz des cellules lysées, à réticuler les microbulles de gaz avec un agent de réticulation, à charger un gaz dans les microbulles et à placer les microbulles de gaz de telle sorte que le gaz soit apporté au site. Pour prélever les cellules contenant des microbulles de gaz, on place les cellules dans des conditions qui amènent les cellules à remonter à la surface d'un milieu aqueux - des conditions telles que l'obscurité, une phase de croissance exponentielle, la flocculation, ou la flottaison dans du gaz dissous - puis on recueille les cellules sur la surface du milieu. On isole les microbulles de gaz en lysant les cellules, puis en séparant du lysat les microbulles de gaz. Une fois que les microbulles de gaz sont isolées, on peut les modifier par exemple par réticulation avec du glutaraldéhyde.

Abstract: A current collector (40,41) includes a thin porous substrate and
a hydrophilic material, where the hydrophilic material is
provided to holes of the thin porous substrate or surfaces
of skeleton elements of the porous substrate so that
hydrophilic areas (40d,41d) formed by the hydrophilic material
successively pass through the thin porous substrate between
both surfaces of the thin porous substrate. In the current
collector, water is let out through the hydrophilic areas
and does not stay on an interface between an electrode and
the current collector so that reaction gas is not hampered
and is supplied, unlike a conventional current collector.
When the current collector is applied to a polymer
electrolyte fuel cell, water is supplied with reliability
through the hydrophilic areas to a polymer electrolyte
membrane so that the polymer electrolyte membrane is
effectively humidified. The current collector applied to a
cathode achieves a profound effect because reaction product
water tends to stay around a cathode of any types of fuel
cells. The current collector also includes gas flow paths
which are surrounded by particles of a hydrophobic material
(40c,41c) and pass through the thin porous substrate between both
surfaces of the thin porous substrate. As a result, gas
permeability of the current collector is maintained with
reliability.
